Organic wholemeal macaroni 500 g - Riet vell

The hard wheat used to make this pasta comes from extensive and rainfed organic crops in private farms located in the steppe areas of Belchite or Los Monegros, in the Ebro Valley, where the El Planerón Ornithological Reserve is also located.

Riet Vell buys this wheat from selected farmers based on the location of their plots, under the supervision of SEO/BirdLife, and tries to offer better economic conditions. These are very unproductive areas in terms of kilograms per hectare but suitable for high-quality hard wheat for the production of pasta. The steppe areas of Belchite and Los Monegros are characterized by a mosaic of crops, fallow lands, and woody pastures that provide a suitable habitat for very rare and threatened species such as the Spanish Lesser Kestrel, the Little Bustard, the Stone Curlew, and the Tawny Pipit.

Manufacturing specifications: The hard wheat is ground into semolina and kneaded with water before being passed through molds and left to dry.

SEO/BirdLife guarantee: Cultivated using methods that promote the conservation of birds and their habitats in the steppe areas of the Ebro Valley. Guaranteed by the Aragonese Committee for Organic Agriculture, Government of Aragon.
